#20 Nancy Kovack

Nancy Kovack is a unique combination of beauty and brains. Unfortunately, the first tended to outshine the second, and Nancy never really got the serious roles she longed for. Instead, she racked up the credits as a game show hostess, an Elvis girl, a Star Trek babe, and a Matt Helm Slaygirl (What? You’ve never heard of the Slaygirls?). She also did turns on Batman, Bewitched, Love American Style, and a Vincent Price horror flick. She gave it all up, though, to marry the famous conductor Zubin Mehta. I kid you not.
